Nicole, the middle child, has been kept at arm's length due to her ongoing battle with a serious drug addiction. Michael, the youngest, lives out of state and hasn't been back to their small Wisconsin town since their father ran out on them seven years before.
While going through their parent's belongings, the siblings stumble upon a collection of home videos and decide to revisit those happier memories. However, the nostalgia is cut short when one of the VHS tapes reveals a night back in 1999 that none of them have any recollection of. On screen, their father appears covered in blood. What follows is a dead body and a pact between their parents to get rid of it, before the video abruptly ends.
Beth, Nicole, and Michael must now decide whether to leave the past in the past or uncover the dark secret their mother took to her grave." Via Amazon

Review
This was such a fun fast-paced and suspenseful domestic thriller. I really enjoyed having all of the different POVs and the time jumps that were included made sense. People have described this as a popcorn read and I think that is the perfect description! The murder mystery and summer vibes made this a fun start to the summer season!
The ending was also satisfying!
Final Recommendation: If you are looking for a quick YA thriller then you should definitely pick this up!
